More to Keep Us Warm

The death of a young man’s mother instigates this collection of remarkable poems that seeks to map the limitations and breaking points of the human heart. The question of how and why humans fall in and out of love becomes a haunting refrain as the intricacies of relationships are probed. As his inherited belief systems continue to fail, the narrator also attempts to formulate a new, complex sense of self. Full of humor, sardonic wit, and conversational charm, this collection enchants as it strives to find the ultimate answers to love and life.
